GRADUATE PHOTOGRAPHY ONLINE 2016

Liceul de Arte Plastice Timisoara (LAPT)The 'Fine Arts High-school' of Timisoara, Romania was founded in 1924, initially as an Israelite High-school. My class was the last generation to graduate its courses in this building, which has been like a second home for me, having spent most of my adolescence there. It became an inseparable fragment of my identity. Consequently, since the school will soon be demolished, so will a part of my identity. As such, by bringing together a collection of works that consists of photographs taken during the school's activity and following its abandonment, I not only seek to preserve the building, but also to maintain a way of revisiting this space after its demolition.
